Expand i haven't heard about the "big name," just know that there is a specific target and list of who/what they want. the way i understood it was the target wasn't available in January which doesn't make sense.

I'm kinda torn between pity for Baker Mayfield - 5 years in the league, and the only year he got to spend a second season with the same coach and OC he was injured - and the feeling he's been "hoist by his own petard" in lobbying for Kitchens as both OC and head coach his 2nd season. So what is this plan to finish the season? One would hope a team wouldn't fire a guy in early October without it. By the way, Rhule is apparently far from "off the books". They'll be paying him for 3+ years, apparently. Shades of Wrecks Ryan. Expand On 10/10/2022 at 4:15 PM, Limeaid said: Off their pocketbooks? Coaching contracts are guarenteed unless something very severe occurs. I wonder how NFL front office would react if he tried to sign a current DC as head coach. Expand the contract is tied to if he gets another offer or contract which offsets the balance the Panthers owe him. this was written online at a few places, as well. Quote

Expand Darnold is expected to miss another few weeks with his own injury (also a high ankle sprain) The Panthers are going to be starting PJ Walker 🤣 Quote

I was told by someone in the know to expect the Panthers to chase a big name when the inevitable Rhule firing came. Watch Sean Payton and Jim Harbaugh. Expand Harbaugh claimed his interview with Minnesota last year were his last look into the pros. Obviously that could be a bunch of crap, but He claims he is done chasing the NFL. Quote
DrDawkinstein Posted October 10, 2022 Posted October 10, 2022 Dang, fired their DC today too. The OC is the only one left in the building, holding the bag 🤣 Quote

I don't see him going there and I don't see them hiring an offensive dude. Belichick has no connection to Carolina, nor do the others. Raheem Morris, DeMeco Ryans.... not big names but good candidates. Oh gosh, please be Rex Ryan!!!! 2 Quote

NoHuddleKelly12 Posted October 10, 2022 Posted October 10, 2022 I mean, he did have multiple 1st round draft picks starting for him at QB! 🤷🏼♂️🫣 Quote
